When her mom inherits an old, crumbling mansion, Seda’s almost excited to spend the summer there.

Where kids whisper the legend of an insidious monster at parties and around campfires. Where girls have been disappearing for decades, stolen away by a ravenous evil no one has dared to fight… until now. Discussion:                   ...
